Nonprofit Overview
Causes: Animals, Bird Sanctuaries
Mission: Waterfowl chesapeake will create, restore and conserve waterfowl habitat throughout the chesapeake bay watershed and nearby coastal bays by engaging in collaborative, strategic initiatives with organizations, governments, corporations, foundations and individuals.
Programs: For more than four decades, the organization has staged an annual event that has raised a total of more than $5 million for wildlife and habitat conservation, education, and research. More than fifty organizations have benefited through grants of nearly $4 million on conservation projects, more than $1 million on environmental education programs, and more than $26,000 on habitat and wildlife research initiatives. In recent years we began turning our focus towards more collaborative and participatory projects, leveraging funds and creating partnerships on more expansive projects. The organization was a contributing partner in association with several private, governmental, and nonprofit entities to restore and protect critical wetland habitat at eastern neck national wildlife refuge, as well as the national audubon societys shehan wildlife sanctuary. More recently in 2011, the organization was directly engaged in the completion of a two-year project (cont. Sched. O)
